SUBJECT: Status Report on Ygnacio Valley Road Corridor Study
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Accept this report on- the status of the Ygnacio Valley Road Corridor
Study.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On April 4, 1989, the Board approved participation by the County in a
study of traffic congestion along the Ygnacio Valley Road corridor, in
cooperation with the Cities of Concord and Walnut Creek, and directed `
staff to negotiate a work scope and cost sharing agreement with the
participating cities. The cost of the study was initially estimated
to be between $75,000 and $95 ,000. A scope of work was subsequently
developed, which focused on the installation of high occupancy vehicle
(HOV) lanes along the corridor, and a cooperative agreement was drafted
which set. the County' s participation at $7, 500.
After further discussions, the Cities of Concord and Walnut Creek have
decided to proceed with only a portion of the study, the origin-
destination analysis, which they jointly funded. Study of high
occupancy vehicle lane configurations has been deferred until further
work is completed by city staff. The results of the origin-
destination study are expected in August. Pending decisions on the
future course of this study, no contributions by the County are
required.
